Inhaltsangabe

Run, Jeremiah Run! is a story of faith and hope. Jeremiah is a young boy who finds himself running into life's toughest situations. As a foster child, life for him is a garbage bag filled with his things, a new school, and worst of all finding a new family. All he has ever wanted is a place to call his own, his own family, and a life of adventure without getting into trouble.

Although life is tough for him, he holds on to his grandmother's promise--the promise of a handful of mustard seeds being planted one day to grow into a tree of his own.

After being expelled from school again, he thinks that no one will ever want him to be a part of their family. But before long with the help of his friends, he learns a lesson of teamwork and what it really means to stick it out till the end.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

“When he moved, he ran, it was as if walking didn’t exist…”

Nine-year-old Jeremiah Jones was always running. Running around the schoolyard, running into trouble, and running away from his past.

As a foster child, life for Jeremiah looks like a garbage bag filled with his things, a new school, and a new family to live with every few months. All he really wants is a place and a family that he can call his own.

After being expelled from school again, Jeremiah really begins to think that no one will ever want him to be a part of their family. But it doesn’t take long before some special people, teammates he can count on, and a priceless gift from his grandmother help him realize that sometimes the most important thing is to just finish the race.
